Full Terms and Conditions of Sale (consumer)
1. Introduction
1.1 These terms and conditions shall govern the sale and purchase of all products through our website to the consumer.
1.2 You will be asked to give your express agreement to these terms and conditions before accessing our site via any device; otherwise you may not browse the contents or place an order on our website.
1.3 This document does not affect any statutory rights you may have as a consumer (such as rights under the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013 or the Consumer Rights Act 2015).
2. Interpretation
2.1 In these terms and conditions: (a) "we" means EWWines.co.uk (registered as Ellis Wharton Wines Ltd); and (b) "you" means our customer or prospective customer, or consumer – that is an individual acting wholly or mainly outside your trade, business, craft or profession and "us", "our" and "your" should be construed accordingly.
3. Contract of sale
3.1 The advertising of products on our website constitutes an "invitation to treat" rather than a contractual offer.
3.2 No contract will come into force between you and us unless and until we accept your order in accordance with the procedure set out in this Section
3.3 3.3 To enter into a contract through our website in order to purchase products from us, the following steps must be taken: you should add the products you wish to purchase to your shopping cart, and then proceed to the checkout. If you are a new customer, you will be invited to create an account with us and log in, but you are under no obligation to do so in order to complete your purchase; if you are an existing customer, you may enter your login details. To confirm your order you will be required to consent to the terms of this document. Your payment request will then be transferred to our payment service provider's website where your payment will be handled. The payment service provider will send you by email an initial receipt of payment; and once we have checked whether we are able to meet your order, we will either send you, by email, an order confirmation (at which point your order will become a binding contract) or inform you we are unable to meet your order, whereby we will refund any monies owed to you or, if agreed by you, offer you alternative products at the same value, or higher in value.
3.4 You will have the opportunity to identify and correct input errors prior to placing your order on the website. We are not responsible for any inaccuracies in the order you have placed. If you have made errors in your order, it is incumbent on you to inform us at the earliest opportunity and before dispatch of goods, or you may liable for fees relating to additional delivery costs as defined in our delivery policy.
4. Products
4.1 We may periodically change the products available on our website, and we do not undertake to continue to supply any particular product or type of product.
4.2 If a product you have ordered is unavailable, we will notify you by phone or email and recommend an alternative of equal value or more, or refund you the cost of purchase of the original wine.
4.3 Faulty wines, meaning one that is corked, oxidised or seemingly out of condition while within its ‘drink by’ date, and that has been stored in the correct state, that is in accordance with general recommendations for the storage of still and sparkling wines, will be replaced or the amount you paid refunded to you, as is your preference, if stated in writing to EWWines within 30 days of purchase.
4.4 We reserve the right to ask you for details concerning the nature and evidence of any fault.
4.5 Subject to availability, where you request a like-for-like replacement of a faulty product we will provide you with this. Should we be unable to do so, we will contact you for your consent to substitute it for a similar wine in style, and in value the same or higher, or refund you the cost to you of the original product.
4.7 Collection of a faulty product, or one that you are dissatisfied with (due to condition or errors in description) must be arranged with us via email or telephone prior to arranging a return via Royal Mail or DPD. In this case, you will not be liable for any collection or re-delivery costs and the return costs you incur will be refunded on safe receipt at the warehouse. However, we will not refund costs incurred by you should you choose to use a different delivery service provider to the ones specially agreed with EWWines.

5.2 All amounts stated in these terms and conditions or on our website are inclusive of UK duty and VAT unless otherwise specified.
5.3 We reserve the right to change the prices quoted on our website due to currency exchange fluctuations, duty or VAT rises, import tariffs, other taxes, and changing market conditions. However, these will not affect contracts that have previously come into force.
5.4 It is possible that prices on the website may be incorrectly quoted; accordingly, we will verify prices as part of our sale procedures so that the correct price will be notified to you before the contract of sale comes into force.
5.5 In addition to the price of the products, you may have to pay a delivery charge, which we will notify you of before the contract of sale comes into force.
5.6 We reserve the right to terminate without notice any promotion or offer on our website.
5.7 Coupon codes are released at our discretion, and we may forego your right without notice to redeem the monetary value of such code against your product purchases if we consider your use of it inappropriate, and which may include, for example, re-use without permission or transferring codes to others, and may result in: (a) adding the coupon value to your order and charging this at payment (b) adding the coupon value to any future order you place if we have not done so at the time you inputted the code (c) cancelling the dispatch of your order (d) recovering the products if they have been delivered to you, with all costs incurred charged to you (e) deleting your account with us

6.4 (including without limitation legal fees and debt collection fees), and for the avoidance of doubt, if you fail to recognise or fail to remember the source of an entry on your card statement or other financial statement, and make a charge-back as a result, this will constitute an unjustified charge-back for the purposes of this Section 6.4.
7. Deliveries
7.1 Our policies and procedures relating to the delivery of products are set out in our delivery policy document.
8. Distance contracts: cancellation rights & returns
8.1 This Section 8 applies if and only if you offer to contract with us, or contract with us, as a consumer - that is, as an individual acting wholly or mainly outside your trade, business, craft or profession.
8.2 You may withdraw an offer to enter into a contract with us through our website or cancel a contract entered into with us through our website (without giving any reason for your withdrawal or cancellation) at any time within the period: (a) beginning upon the submission of your offer; and (b) ending at the end of 14 calendar days after the day on which the products come into your physical possession or the physical possession of a person identified by you to take possession of them.

To meet the cancellation deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning the exercise of the right to cancel before the cancellation period has expired.
8.4 If you cancel a contract on the basis described in this Section 8, and you are already in receipt of your order, you must await a collection by our authorised delivery service provider unless we specify otherwise.

8.5 If you cancel an order in accordance with this Section 8, you will receive a full refund of the amount you paid to us in respect of the order except as otherwise provided in this Section 8.
8.6 If the value of the products returned by you is diminished by any amount as a result of the handling of those products by you beyond what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the products, we may recover that amount from you up to the contract price. We may recover that amount by deducting it from any refund due to you or require you to pay that amount direct to us. Handling which goes beyond the sort of handling that might reasonably be allowed in a shop will be "beyond what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the products" for these purposes.
8.7 We will refund money using the same method used to make the payment, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise. In any case, you will not incur any fees as a result of the refund.
